I agree on the soloing, Page was no Blackmore with solos, but did give Iommi a fairly decent run for his money in terms of riffs.

Stairway To Heaven is literally the most perfect blend of folk and rock ever created in a song. It's a song whose lyrics will read differently for every single person on earth and by god if it's not one of Plant's best vocal performances then I don't know what is. The way the flute and guitar intertwine together is nothing short of genius as well. I'm sorry Ars but Stairway To Heaven is just THE perfect song.

^other than the intro being a rip off of "Taurus" by Spirit, yeah Stairway is perfect. Kashmir too.

It's one of those few Zeppelin songs you can say with certainty that it is not a blues rip off :P

It doesn't rip off Taurus, it uses 3 of the same notes in a row in the beginning out of a 30 note long riff. That's not what I call a rip off.

@fallenbird The chords are also the same or at least very close harmonics. Try singing the verse you can get to "and she's buying a stairway..." It's not like it ruins the song or anything I'm just saying it's a minor flaw we all wish we could do away with. Darn Spirit and Muddy Waters have to go and de-mythologize our idols!

I do love Zeppelin but four sticks and evermore really bring this down.

I'm not a big fan of Four Sticks too but The Battle of Evermore is one of my favorites from this one.
